Mounting the Light Kit (Rigid Tube)
Step 8 (Rigid Tube)
Set the Support Structure in the desired installation position and find
the center on top and mark. (fig. 33) Now draw a mark from the center
point on the Support Structure to the Rigid Tube (fig. 34) Using the
center mark on the Rigid Tube as a guide, make a mark 13” up from the
top of the sheetrock (fig. 35) as described in (fig. 20) Now drill a 3/4”
hole using the Assorted Drill Bits as described on page 1. (fig. 36)
Guide the Light Kit assembly through the hole from inside the Diffuser
Housing (fig. 37) Then attach the 3 Legs onto the Wing nut posts and
tighten firmly. (fig. 38 & 39) You may need to adjust the Socket and
Connecting Bracket slightly to allow the Legs to fit.

Step 9
Center the Support Structure under the Junction Box, place the other Reinforcement Ring onto the Flex Conduit and press onto the
Flex Tube. Install the Clamp Combination Connector to secure the Flex Conduit to the Junction Box. (fig. 40) Now secure the Support
Structure to the ceiling joists with the 3” Deck Screws, (not included) and secure the Junction Box to the Support Structure with the
smaller 1” screws (not included) (fig. 41 & 42)
Step 10
Bring the electrical line into the Junction Box and secure with an additional
Clamp Combination Connector (fig. 43) Strip open the electric wires and
connect with the Wire nuts as shown in (fig. 44 & 45) Connect the ground
wire to the Junction Box and tuck the wires in. (fig. 46) Secure the cover.

We recommend using a 100 Watt equivalent CFL Bulb. (fig 48)
When complete, replace the Diffuser Assembly and switch back on your
breaker. Then test the lightswitch to confirm. (fig. 49 & 50) Your Light Kit is
now installed.
WARNING: BEFORE WORKING WITH ANY ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
Make sure to switch off your breaker to the circuit you will be working on. If you have any questions or concerns
about working with electricity, consult a professional electrician first before proceeding with Step 10 or hire a
professional electrician to finish this part of the installation of your Light Kit.
IMPORTANT:Switch off
breaker to circuit first!
